Easter Week

We kicked off Holy week by attending Christ Community's annual Living Lords Super where Jesus and the 12 Apostals bring Davinci's Last Super painting to life. Grandpa and Uncle Dan were both actors in the program. Abigail was very confused when she saw Grandpa dressed as Jesus.

The live painting looks very realistic in person!
We died Easter eggs (and the dining room table)!

Easter day braught three Easter egg hunts, two ham dinners, and two very tired, sugared-out girls! We started the day with an Easter egg hunt in our living room. Elizabeth was very eager to find the eggs while Abigail was more interested in how many pieces of chocolate were in her Easter basket! The Easter bunny left them both a set of plastic golf clubs!





Next, we went to the Easter morning service at CCC. We then had lunch at Bruce and Maggie's where Bruce hid the eggs a few times for all of the kids to find in the backyard. The girls had a lot of fun finding the eggs, Caleb quickly lost interest, and the plastic eggs felt really nice on Jude's gums! We had a wonderful meal (as always) that Maggie prepared.
Even Jude joined in on the egg hunt.

Stuffed and tired, we went to our next Easter celebration at Great-Grandma's house. The weather was perfect this year and the whole family got to hunt for their Easter eggs outdoors. Ya Ya spoiled the girls with Easter baskets full of chocolate, bunny ears and Strawberry Shortcake dolls. Great-Grandma prepared a ham and some other wonderful dishes (the deviled eggs are my favorite part of the meal)!

Caleb enjoyed hunting for eggs, but quickly lost
interest, wanting to play in the sand box!
5:00 rolled around and the girls (and Nate and myself) were tuckered out!
We finished Easter Sunday by watching Bubba Watson win the 2012 Master's Tournament! It was a really nice day!
